Faith Poster

This week we have been learning about faith. I enjoyed learning about faith because there is lots to learn about faith and it is really interesting. I found it tricky to get reasons to what faith means to me. Do you know what faith is? Next time I would probably change the bits of information about faith. I found it tricky to to find my own reasons about faith. Next time I would change the background and I would add some more pictures or different ones.

Social Justice Week.

We have been learning about social justice week and the beatitudes. We learn this because it is social justice week. Do you know what social justice week is? Next time I would change my beatitude to a different one so that I could learn about a different beatitude. I enjoyed learning about the beatitudes. Do you know what the beatitudes are? I found it tricky to find a beatitude to learn about. This is my poster.

My Ruru Calendar Art.

Do you know what a Ruru is? Well, for the past two weeks we have been doing our calendar art. We learnt this because it is the time of the year that we do our calendar art. We do calendar art every year and  I love doing it because art is my favourite subject. I found it tricky to stick the crape paper on. Next time I would change the colour of the crape paper and maybe change my bird to a different native bird. This is my Ruru.

My Beatitudes Poster

 This week we have been learning about beatitudes. We learnt this because it was social justice week. Do you know what the beatitudes are? I found it challenging to find a beatitude to focus on. I enjoyed finding a background that fitted the theme. Next time I would change my beatitude so I could make a different symbol and so I could learn about  a different beatitude. We had to make a poster focusing on one beatitude. This is my beatitude slide I hope you like it. 

Do You Think That Trees Are Important.

This week for writing we have been doing our speeches. We did speeches because it was the time of the term that we had to do speeches. We had to write our speeches and then we had to present them to the school because it was the speech semi finals. I liked writing this task because my topic was trees and trees are a really cool topic. Did you like my post about mister wolf guilty? Next time This is my story below. I hope you like it.

Every second, somewhere in the world a soccer field amount of trees is cut down. I strongly believe that people should stop cutting down trees.  I will tell you where air comes from and why trees are important for this. They give us fruit and tyres for our cars. Leaves on trees can change colour. Listen up and I will convince you that we have to save the trees and save our environment!

Firstly, I strongly believe that people should stop cutting down trees because trees provide us with oxygen so that we can live. They take the carbon dioxide that we breathe out, and that is made by cars and factories, and trees turn it into oxygen. In other words, trees breathe in carbon dioxide, and breathe out oxygen. The opposite of what humans do. This process is called photosynthesis. If we keep cutting trees down, we will eventually have only a little bit of oxygen left and too much carbon dioxide, which is bad for us and the environment. I think people should stop cutting trees down. Don’t you?

Secondly, trees can provide fruit and I think that fruit trees are very important for us. Do you like fruit? Trees provide apples, oranges, bananas, coconuts and apricots. All of these come from trees. If we cut down all of the fruit trees we won’t have any healthy food for us. Can you imagine the world with no fruit? That would be terrible. Because fruit trees are trees, they can also provide oxygen for us. That makes them important for the world in two different ways. So we have to look after our trees for two reasons.

Thirdly, I think that trees are beautiful and very cool? Do you? Well I do and I want to convince you to think that they're cool. Because they are. In autumn their leaves can change from green to orange to yellow to red and lots of different colours. Trees can only change colour in autumn and winter. Trees that change colour are called deciduous trees. The changing colour is the leaves dying and the tree starting to hibernate for the winter. Some trees never change colours. They just stay green. These trees are called evergreen trees and I guess you know what that means. Trees can start to bloom in spring and if you haven’t seen a blossom tree I highly recommend you look out for it at the moment. I think this is an amazing example of God’s beautiful creation.

In this piece of writing I have stated where air comes from, that they can give us fruit and how trees are cool in autumn. Now look out there at our beautiful trees. Do you still want to cut trees down? I don’t, and I hope I have convinced you not to cut trees down.

Is Mr Wolf Guilty.

We were learning how to talk about perspectives. We learnt this because the speeches are coming up and we have to write persuasive. I enjoyed seeing what other peoples perspectives were. Next time I would add some more reasons to persuade more people to agree with me because the wolf was innocent he just swallowed them he didn't kill them. I found it tricky to find reasons for why he was guilty so I didn't put any in because I couldn't find any. This is a video that explained why the wolf isn't guilty.

Yoga.

 For this task we had to do a cosmic kids yoga class. I enjoyed doing this task because recently we played twister and our bodys were really sore so this was nice and relaxing. Next time I would change the photo to when we were saying namaste. I found it tricky to do bowl pose because we had to use lots of our muscles to do that pose. I enjoyed this task because it was based in minecraft and I like minecraft. 

Saint Joseph.

 For this task we had to create a google drawing that had a picture of our saint. I enjoyed finding facts about saint Joseph. Next time I would change my picture. I found it tricky to do saint joseph's hair because every time I got it right it immediately deleted the hair and finally when it did not delete it, it was the wrong shape so I decided to change the line. Next time I would change some of the facts to more interesting. 

My Lego Maze.

For this task we had to create something out of lego. I chose to make a lego maze. I enjoyed making the maze because my dad said to make a hole in the roof that lead to the maze. Next time I would raze the roof a little bit to make the marble run a bit smoother. I found it tricky to support all of the roof so that it wouldn't fall onto the marble. Next time I would make the maze a bit bigger. This is a link to a video about lego and here is another link to a video. These are some of the photos of the maze.

The Amazing Race Three.

 For this task we had to do another amazing race. So far we have done two amazing races and this is our third. At first I thought that we were just going to do one but then I realized that there was a pattern the pattern is that we are probably going to do an amazing race every tuesday. I enjoyed making the statue of a person. Next time I would probably try to make the statue more realistic. I found it tricky to learn the samba, for that mini task we had to pick out of doing the samba or showing of our best soccer tricks. This is a link to a video that is about the world. I hope you enjoy the photos that I took. Can you comment bellow on the my sea turtle blog post.

Let's Learn Tongan!

 For this task we had to create a set of slides that had tongan words and the translated version in english. We also had to use mote to record ourselfs. I enjoyed learning how to use mote because I had never used it before and my sister helped me create an account so I could use it. Next time I would do different words so people could learn more tongan. I Found it tricky to pranounce it right but I gave it my best try so can you tell me if I said it wrong in the comments. Here is a link to a video that helps you learn tongan.

Turtles.

For this task we had to create a poster with a picture of a turtle and five facts. I enjoyed doing this task because I found it interesting researching about turtles. Next time I would change to different colours for my turtle. I found it tricky to draw the turtle but in the end I think it looked quite good. Do you know how to draw a turtle? This is a link to the video that I watched to learn how to draw turtles. This is a picture of my poster. Tell me in the comments if you like my turtle. 

 

Dogs Are Better Than Cats.

 For this task we had to create a google dock about cats and dogs. I found it tricky to find research that backed me up. Next time I would try to get more reasons for my self assessment. I enjoyed learning about cats and dogs. I found it interesting that some types of dogs can be trained to sniff out different, certent types of cancer.

My Escape Room.

 For this task we had to do an escape room and take some pictures. I enjoyed trying to find the answer to the questions because the questions were at random so we didn't know what to expect. Next time I would change the pictures to one of each page. I found it tricky to turn and open the door. This is a link to the maths escape room. These are the pictures of the maths escape room. You can try out the maths escape room with the link above.

Cats Vs Dogs!

 For this task we had to tell people our opinion about cats and dogs. I chose to be on the dogs side because dogs are cool. I enjoyed learning about why cats and dogs are more popular in different ways. Next time I would change the font to a bit bigger. I found it tricky to get the reasons for cats because cats aren't that cool and they don't have many reasons for you to vote for them so I say you should vote for dogs because there cool. I enjoyed finding reasons for why people vote cat or dog.

Surface Tension.

 For this task we had to pick out of two experiments to do but I chose to do both. I enjoyed learning about surface tension because its cool how a paper click can float on water. Next time I would add more pepper   to see if it made a difference. I found it tricky to add the right amount of dishwashing liquid. The dishwashing liquid makes all of the pepper go to the sides. When you fill a cup up with water it doesn't overflow straight away because the molecules of the water stick together. The surface tension can hold a paper clip on the water. These are some photos of the experiments.

My Fathers Day Card.

 For our task today we had to make a fathers day card. I enjoyed doing this because I got to do it with my little sister and it was a nice thing to do. I found it tricky to set the date so that it would publish on fathers day at the right time. Next time I would add more things to the cover. I enjoyed learning that every year fathers day is the first sunday of september. I found it tricky to take the photo and post it to my blog. Next time I would change the colour of the paper to make it more interesting. 

My Fractions Game.

 For this task we had to do a fractions task so I got my mum to help me play the fractions game. I found it tricky too do the fractions because I don't really understand fractions but my mum helped so we got the game done pretty fast. Next time I would take the kings and queens out so that we didn't have to go through trying to find the number cards. I enjoyed doing this task because I got to learn more about fractions.

My Bouncing Egg.

 For this task we had to create a bouncing egg. At first I was like how are we going to do that? But once I had watched the video I got the main idea. Next time I would use a different vinegar and see if it affected the way it bounced. I found it challenging to get all of the egg bouncy but in the end we had to bounce it when there was still a little bit of the egg shell but it just cracked a bit. I enjoyed learning how to make a bouncing egg with just vinegar and an egg. 

My Banana Cake.

I chose to do this task for fun because I wanted to share the recipe with you ( its delicious trust me).  I enjoyed baking the cake because I got to make it with my mum. Once it was done all you could smell was banana cake. Next time I would change the photo so I wouldn't have to be bending down. I found it tricky to find out when it was cooked but when you poke the skewer  into the cake if its cooked there will be nothing that comes of with the skewer.  

My Pen Pale Card.

 This task was a reading task and we had to wright to someone. I enjoyed doing this task because I got to wright to my Nan. I found it challenging to find what to say. Next time I would add more detail to the cover. I enjoyed drawing the cover of the card. Next time I would change the colours of the block letters. I found it challenging to write lightly so that if I made a mistake I could rub it out easily. I enjoyed doing this task because my sister got to help. 

My Multiplication Table.

 For this task we had to create a slide that has a multiplication table so that we can practice our multiplication. I enjoyed doing this task because we also got to do a kahoot about multiplication and I  liked learning about more problems. I found it tricky to put the numbers in the right place but I eventually got the rhythm. Next time I would change the order the colours were in so that it would be harder to find the answer. I enjoyed doing this task and learning more about multiplication. I found it challenging to add the colours into the small boxes. This is a link that is about multiplication table. This is the slide that has my Table in it I hope you like it. 

Spelling Practice Slides.

 For our learning task today we had to create a set of slides that had different activities to do. I enjoyed doing this spelling task because we got to do some really cool things that we haven't done before like creating word art. I found it tricky to do the rainbow word art because I had to keep clicking the colour button to change the colour. Next time I would change my word art to a different shape. I enjoyed doing this spelling task. Next time I would change the backgrounds to lighter backgrounds.
